The above output seems to indicate that the kernel is still relying on drivers/ide instead of libata. To change this, I'd suggest setting "CONFIG_IDE=n" and "CONFIG_ATA=y" in your .config before compiling the kernel. Also, make sure everything that starts with CONFIG_ATA, CONFIG_PATA, CONFIG_SATA, and CONFIG_SCSI is set to "y". Vlad __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam?
